all i say is that in 2005:

xbox had 512mb and good pc's had 1gb i think. nowadays good pc's have 8gb and the nex box will have 2gb in one or two years (yes maybe ddr5).

in 2005 xbox had 3x3.2ghz and pc's had maybe 2x2.8 or so (don't remember exactly). next box will have 6x3.6 with 4 threads and actual pc will have the same then.

 

i don't want a xbox with 16gb ram i just said the specs aren't so impressive like the guy i was replying to said (i thought it was you i was wrong yeah). sure they are great but after the ps3 and 360 realeases with the nice specs for 2005/06 i didn't expect lower specs then the rumor says did you?

you really think PowerPC 3x3.2 CPU(Xenon) is better than Pentium D/dual core intel CPU?

yeah right RAM seems need to be 4GB+,but CPU/GPU already looks good to next box

don't know maybe not better but even. all specs seem to be not very different. xbox had one more processor with higher clock speed (best itel model had 3.2ghz as well)  L2 cache was greater in core duo (which came out 2006) L1 cache seems to be even.

maybe one or the other processor was better but do you think the rumor specs are better compared to what pc's will have 2012/13 than the 360 specs compared to pc's of 2005? i think they will be worse or in best case as good as 360 was for the year 2005

so if microsoft would sell the next xbox for $399 like they sold the 360 then they won't lose the same amount of money because i think the 360 was more expensive for them then. so i think the price won't be higher than $399 which wouldn't be so much. we shouldn't forget inflation. we earn much more money then but we wouldn't have to pay more for a console and i still now everyone will complain about the price then.

it'S the same with games we earn 100% more money than we did 20 years ago but we still won't pay 70 for a game next gen which would be only a small increase to prices 10 years ago
